Why would it be a big game for us? You think Accrington are some sort of crowd puller over here? It's a pointless game but it's at Accrington's expense so whatever we make on the gate is a bonus, it won't be much but it's better than nothing at this stage of the season for us. The main point of the day is the official opening of our astro pitch, so I suppose it makes sense to have some sort of game on for people to head along to after.
Our Chairman said Accrington were the only club willing to come over here for a game at this time of the season, I think Coleman felt a duty to do it as a thank you for us letting him go with no fuss.
